Description Yihui Zhao 2017-10-13 07:10:56 UTC
Description of problem:
Missing the "qemu-kvm-tools" package resulting in failing to add additional host to HostedEngine.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
redhat-virtualization-host-4.2-20171011.2
cockpit-ovirt-dashboard-0.11.0-0.0.3.el7ev.noarch
qemu-img-rhev-2.9.0-16.el7_4.5.x86_64
qemu-kvm-common-rhev-2.9.0-16.el7_4.5.x86_64
qemu-kvm-rhev-2.9.0-16.el7_4.5.x86_64
libvirt-daemon-driver-qemu-3.2.0-14.el7_4.3.x86_64
ipxe-roms-qemu-20170123-1.git4e85b27.el7_4.1.noarch
qemu-guest-agent-2.8.0-2.el7.x86_64
rhvm-appliance-4.1.20170927.0-1.el7.noarch
ovirt-hosted-engine-setup-2.2.0-0.1.master.git21639e3.el7ev.noarch

How reproducible:
100%


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Clean install redhat-virtualization-host-4.2-20171011.2
2. Login to cockpit webUI with root account
3. Deploy HostedEngine
4. Add additional host via engine
5. Check the HE status

Actual results:

This bug report has Keywords: Regression or TestBlocker.
Since no regressions or test blockers are allowed between releases, it is also being identified as a blocker for this release. Please resolve ASAP.

Comment 4 Sandro Bonazzola 2017-10-16 13:37:53 UTC
Need to investigate on this because qemu-kvm-tools shouldn't be required since it doesn't exist anymore.

Comment 5 Sandro Bonazzola 2017-10-16 14:07:40 UTC
qemu-kvm-tools requirement has been dropped 8 months ago from ovirt-host-deploy.
Can you please attach log-collector report including hypervisor report?

Comment 6 Sandro Bonazzola 2017-10-16 14:10:15 UTC
Oh, I see, you're using rhvm-appliance 4.1 on a 4.2 RHV-H.
Is this a supported case?

Comment 7 Sandro Bonazzola 2017-10-16 14:41:01 UTC
Removing TestBlocker since you can still test oVirt Node 4.2 with a 4.2 engine instead of a 4.1 appliance.

Comment 10 Pavol Brilla 2017-11-02 13:32:37 UTC
Tested against u/s builds: engine 4.1-pre / host 4.2-pre

engine# yum list ovirt-engine ovirt-host-deploy                                    
Installed Packages
ovirt-engine.noarch                           4.1.7.5-1.el7.centos                       @ovirt-4.1-pre
ovirt-host-deploy.noarch                      1.6.7-1.el7.centos                         @ovirt-4.1-pre

host# yum list ovirt-host-deploy vdsm
Available Packages
ovirt-host-deploy.noarch      1.7.0-0.0.master.20171012082735.git24e53fd.el7.centos       ovirt-4.2-pre
vdsm.x86_64                   4.20.5-1.el7.centos                                         ovirt-4.2-pre

Problem is that qemu-kvm-tools-ev-10:2.9.0-16.el7_4.8.1.x86_64 is still isntalled from @centos-qemu-ev-release

Comment 11 Sandro Bonazzola 2017-11-02 13:39:25 UTC
If the pkg is available it gets installed. The fix is that if the package is missing it doesn't fail.
You can force it missing by setting exclude=qemu-kvm-tools-ev in yum repo conf

Comment 12 Pavol Brilla 2017-11-02 13:46:44 UTC
Setup same as in comment10
+
# grep exclude /etc/yum.conf 
exclude=qemu-kvm-tools-ev

host 4.2-pre added to 4.1-pre engine without any issue
